exav8tr,

Thank you for your interest in helping. I would like to explain a few things and then ask for additional assistance.

Those of us that were around from the start of the MOC know how much time and heart and soul Glenn put into the web pages, the ones that now are sadly out of date, the very ones that we are now replacing.

Glenn spent hundreds of hours building a collection of RV links that, were, beyond believable. Since his passing, the pages were left untended and now well over half of the links no longer are viable.

In the last weeks attempts have been made to start afresh, but using Glenn's work as the foundation for the new pages.

A page, such as this, GPS, was built from Glenn's pages, pages with 2 to 3 times the links as you see on this new page. Each and every one of Glenn's links were reviewed, opened, clicked on. As stated, about 1/3 of them were still viable, the other 2/3rds opened to dead pages. It took hours to rebuild just this one page.

Because Glenn's pages were so detailed and huge, it will take several more months to review them all. Until we are sure we have looked at every link, his pages are out there floating around in net land, and indeed if you click around enough from the new pages you may very well find yourself on one of Glenn's old pages.

Eventually Glenn's old pages will be removed and left to net heaven. We do this with sadness and regret, but, also knowing that Glenn himself would approve. He would want the pages to be current and viable.

No links on the new web pages opened to dead links when they were added (over the last 4 to 8 weeks). It could be that there are bad links there now. This internet thing moves faster than we can keep up!

So, exav8tr, could you look at these web pages and tell me if one of them is where you found links to Fulltimedreamer mod pages.

Glenn's old page for Show and Tell (modifications)

Our new page for members blogs and websites.

Our new page for modifications, or show & tell. You should not find any links on the new show & tell page that take you to Fulltimedreamer's old and now defunct modifcation pages.

Also, if this is not where you found the dead links, could you please provide a URL, best yet, a list of URL's showing the sites you visited to get to the bad pages. Recreate the visit, and tell me of each step, that would be a great help in cleaning up and hopefully improving the MOC Home Web pages.

If anyone ever does find dead links on any of the new pages, please let the Webmaster know, and of course, include the bad URL. Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely, Webmaster
